Climate change is one of the biggest crises facing the world today. Most of us are experiencing its effects in multiple ways such as increased heat waves, distressed fresh water supplies, increased frequency and intensity of urban floods and erratic weather patterns.
As governments discuss mitigation measures, businesses and individuals are doing their bit too. As one of the largest contributors to climate change- 40% of global Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions- the building and construction industry, has a huge opportunity and responsibility to building a more sustainable planet.
